How much does Down syndrome really cost?

Patient's question:

How much does it cost to get a Down syndrome gene test? (PS: I had a general Down syndrome test, and the result was at the critical point. The doctor said I need to do further "Down syndrome gene test")

Doctor's answer:

Dear friend, hello, it is a great pleasure to answer for you. Trisomy screening itself has certain risks and uncertainties. If there is a high-risk situation, it is best to have an amniocentesis to confirm. If it is really trisomy 21, the child's life and this family will be burdened. Currently, amniocentesis can be done. You can go to a regular hospital in your local area to check.
